Agreed. And alternatives exist, like Kobo

Oof

He’d probably like today’s politics, it seems fashionable to just lean into anything bad someone says about you.

British values on display here, it’s not even marginal (48% for Ukraine vs 20% for Trump’s America).

It’s not often I’m proud of my country these days, but this is one of those rare moments.

What’s with the enormous hashtags?

I haven’t used windows in about 15 years on my personal machines but see 7zip referenced everywhere…why is it so popular? Can windows 10/11 or whatever we’re on now not compress/extract most things itself or do people prefer it for some reason (nice interface etc)?

I’m always amazed when I’m following a tutorial written for windows and it says “download and install 7zip, then extract the file using 7zip”. I just right click the file and extract it…

That’s cool!

Ouch.

Is your username a reference to this song by the way? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4LWIP7SAjY

Yep, I got an absolute novel length comment from some far left .ml person as one of my first interactions on Lemmy.

by 2040 no metric ton of fossil fuels will be transported anymore

I seriously doubt it. Many countries are decarbonising like the UK has by getting rid of coal fired power stations and switching to renewables plus gas, because gas is a good way to solve the intermittency issues you get with many renewables. 2040 is not very far away, on that timescale the demand for LNG may actually go up.

I see we have imported the weird hatred of outside cats from Reddit

I’m English, I assure you people here eat them all the time!

Are you sure they were invented in America? That seems very unlikely to be true so I googled it, wikipedia says recipes for muffins appeared as early as 1747 in English cookbooks…

Most English people don’t even know what an English Muffin is

Citation needed

Just in case it’s not obvious, they mean an English muffin, a kind of flat bread roll. In the UK that’s what they sell for breakfast at McDonald’s (sausage and egg, bacon and egg etc).

Big whoosh

I didn’t know about GCompris, I’m going to try it out with my daughter.

It’s on Fdroid as well which is cool!

Jesus, how high were the parents when they made that decision?

That’s a pretty toxic joke dude

I’m pretty sure Ukraine doesn’t have enough ATACMS to completely change the situation. I’m confident they will find clever ways to make Russia hurt with them though, they always use the weapons they are given to good effect.

That’s also a nice compliment though, I.e. it’s so good they think people would pay for it!

So much better, thanks!
